NAME

Arepa::Repository - Arepa repository access class

SYNOPSIS

 my $repo = Arepa::Repository->new('path/to/config.yml');
 my $value = $repo->get_config_key('repository:path');
 my @distros = $repo->get_distributions;
 my @archs = $repo->get_architectures;
 my $bool = $repo->insert_source_package($dsc_file, $distro);
 my $bool = $repo->insert_source_package($dsc_file, $distro,
                                         priority => 'optional',
                                         section  => 'perl');
 my $bool = $repo->insert_source_package($dsc_file, $distro,
                                         priority => 'optional',
                                         section  => 'perl',
                                         comments => 'Why this was approved',
                                         canonical_distro => 'lenny');
 my $bool = $repo->insert_binary_package($deb_file, $distro);
 my $text = $repo->last_cmd_output;

DESCRIPTION

This class represents a reprepro-managed APT repository. It allows you get information about the repository and to insert new source and binary packages in it.

It uses the Arepa configuration to get the repository path, and the own repository reprepro configuration to figure out the distributions and architectures inside it.

METHODS

new($path)

Creates a new repository access object, using the configuration file in $path.

get_config_key($key)

Gets the configuration key $key from the Arepa configuration.

get_distributions

Returns an array of hashrefs. Each hashref represents a distribution declared in the repository conf/distributions configuration file, and contains a (always lowercase) key for every distribution attribute.

get_architectures

Returns a list of all the architectures mentioned in any of the repository distributions.

insert_source_package($dsc_file, $distribution, %options)

Inserts the source package described by the given $dsc_file in the repository and the package database, for the given $distribution. Priority and section can be specified with the priority and section options in %options. Other possible options are comments (comments about the source package e.g. why it was added to the repo or its origin) and canonical_distro (the "canonical" distribution, that is the distribution in your repository the source package should be added to, as opposed to the distribution specified in the actual source package changes file).

insert_binary_package($deb_file, $distribution)

Inserts the given binary package $deb_file in the repository, for the given $distribution.

last_cmd_output

Returns the text output of the last executed command. This can help debugging problems.

get_package_list

Returns a data structure representing all the available packages in all the known distributions. The data structure is a hash that looks like this:

 (foobar => { "lenny/main" => { "1.0-1" => ['source'] } },
  pkg2   => { "lenny/main" => { "1.0-1" => [qw(amd64 source)],
                                "1.0-2" => ['i386'], },
              "etch/contrib" =>
                              { "0.8-1" => [qw(i386 amd64 source) }
            },
  dhelp  => { "lenny/main" => { "0.6.15" => [qw(i386 source)] } },
 )

That is, the keys are the package names, and the values are another hash. This hash has distribution/component as keys, and hashes as values. These hashes have available versions as keys, and a list of architectures as values.

get_source_package_information($package_name, $distro)

Returns a hash with the information for the source package with the given $package_name inside distribution $distro. If there is no source package by that name in that distribution, an empty hash will be returned.

Note that keys in the hash are lowercase.

get_binary_package_information($package_name, $distro, $arch)

Returns a hash with the information for the binary package with the given $package_name inside distribution $distro/$arch. If there is no binary package by that name in that distribution, for that architecture, an empty hash will be returned.

add_distribution(%properties)

Adds a new distribution to the repository, with whatever properties are specified. The properties are specified in lowercase (see get_distributions) and codename is mandatory. Also, you can't specify a codename of an existing distribution, or a suite name that an existing distribution already has. It returns 1 on success, or 0 on failure.

sign_distribution($dist_name)

Signs the Release file for a single distribution (with codename $dist_name). It returns if GPG returned error status zero.

sync_remote

Syncs the local repository to the remote location, if available in the config. Returns if the synchronisation worked (needs the rsync command) or false if there wasn't any remote repository location in the config.

is_synced

Returns if the local repository is synced with the remote repository. It returns false if there's no remote repository location in the config.
